The Court Wizard, now available for Nook, with Fun Fonts!

The Court Wizard is now also available in print or for Nook at barnesandnoble.com! I had some fun with the Nook edition, because I was able to use some interior coloring. For example, the print edition chapter headings look like this:

Chapter One

The Apothecary’s Shop

I wanted to use some colors, but it would have made the print book very expensive and I couldn't have used the trim size (size of book) I wanted. When I converted the file for Kindle, I lost the font and it looks like this:

Chapter One


The Apothecary’s Shop

I'm sure there's a way to do fancy things with Kindle, but I don't know how. I can barely turn the computer on. But with Nook, I could use colors and fonts, although I was afraid to use bigger fonts because things might get weird if people increase the font size. So the chapter headings look like this:

Chapter One

The Apothecary’s Shop

Cool, huh? It's not much, but it's fun. :)
